STUDYING TIPS

DO NOT WAIT FOR THE LAST MINUTE – START ORGANISING YOUR DOCUMENTS RIGHT NOW!!!

In May, you will have studied tens of documents, press articles, interviews, visual documents, audio recordings, videos… Well, take my advice and start organizing them RIGHT NOW.

BAC ORAL : Notions, themes and documents

Your oral presentation (5 minutes) must be related to a notion which you have approached from the perspective offered by a theme and a question that – by exposing and confronting information from your documents – you propose to answer at the end of your presentation: This is the outline you should have on your flash cards :

NOTION→THEME→YOUR QUESTION→DOCUMENTS (1,2,3)→YOUR ANSWER

EXAMPLE:

Idea of progress→Immigration→How does immigration contribute to progress ?→Documents 1, 2, 3 →your answer in the conclusion – Can also be connected to Spaces and Exchanges –

This is the beginning of the school year and you need to be organized from the start in order to make revisions easier. Go to the post ¨Tableau recapitulatif ¨ and write down the documents you are studying in class, along with the notions it may relate to (the same document can indeed relate to several notions). You may add a quick summary of the document, its theme, key concepts and questions it raises.

GOOD LUCK and remember ¨Organising is what you do before you do something, so that when you do it, it is not all mixed up” – A. A. Milne
